The forecast for Germany's import of chemical and fertiliser minerals shows a gradual decline from 5.53 million metric tons in 2024 to 5.27 million metric tons by 2028. This represents a year-on-year average decline of approximately 1.46%. Compared to 2023, when imports stood at 5.60 million metric tons, the average annual decrease over five years reflects a negative growth trajectory. The past two years saw a shrinking market, and this trend is projected to persist into the future.
Future trends to watch include potential disruptions in global supply chains, policy changes affecting import tariffs, and emerging markets for sustainable fertilizers, which could influence import demands and alter this predicted downward trend.
